HONG KONG, March 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Shenzhen Stock Exchange announced that Sinic Holdings (Group) Company Limited (2103.HK) (the "Company") had been incorporated into the eligible stocks list of the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect Scheme today. The incorporation of Sinic is a result of the quarterly review of the Hang Seng Family of Indexes announced on 22 February.
Hong Kong Stock Connect is a collaboration program between Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Through their local exchange and clearing system, mainland China and international investors can trade securities from the other party's stock market. The program was launched in November 2014 and currently covers more than 2,000 eligible stocks from Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. This time around, the adjustment resulted in the inclusion of 21 stocks into the Hong Kong Stock Connect Scheme. Sinic Holdings was incorporated into the Hang Seng Index and the Hong Kong Stock Connect only three months after its launch, which manifests the capital market's high recognition of its investment value and future development.
Established nine years ago, Sinic Holdings was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange last November, the youngest property company to be listed. As a new real estate developer in Hong Kong, the Company has now expanded its business to the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, core cities in the central and western China, and other regions with development potential in China. Also, the Company attaches importance to quality throughout its entire property development process, where it designs and implements for each of its property projects control standards and procedures, including but not limited to design, procurement, construction and delivery. With its unique brand position and strategic plans, the Company is widely sought-after in the capital market, which proves its huge potential.
Looking ahead, Sinic will strive to achieve its strategic development where it is "rooted in Jiangxi with nationwide plans" by consolidating its current market position and further expanding its business nationwide. As the real estate industry rebounds and capital flows southwards, the Company is to capture the attention of more investors in the long term.
